21 | are believers still considered sinners ? | Romans | Chearie | 40293 | ||
In 1 Tim.1:15 Paul does not talk about himself in the past tense as a sinner but rather that he is currently a sinner. I believe that those who follow Christ and have salvation are not perfect-we continue to try to root out sin in our lives to become the best that we can to serve our Lord. Paul is a good example of a sinner - saved by the grace of Jesus Christ but still a sinner. | ||||||
22 | beliefs and practices of christians? | Rom 10:9 | Chearie | 41467 | ||
I welcome the opportunity to testify 1)YES - more so ever day 2)As a child - I trusted Jesus as my saviour and best friend - He was there for me when no one else was - sadly as a young adult I walked away from the relationship but the power of the Spirit I came back first on a superficial level because of my children but now on a very personal level because He is indeed LORD of my life 3)Yes I was raised as a Catholic, married as a Presbyterian, raised by children as Congregationalists but as an adult I have come home to the Nazarene Church and know that this is my family 4)Yes I was confirmed as a young Catholic and committed by life Christ as a Presbyterian and was filled with Holy Spirit as a Nazarene 5)Yes 2 ways - In a formal manner through prayer and reading His Word - In an informal manner He is always (almost always) in my thoughts. I have frequent inaudible discussions with the Lord throughout the day 6)Every chance I get (2-3 times a week) 7)I am a Christian because I believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God who became man, suffered and died for my sins, He was crucified and resurrected, He has ascended to heaven and will return in all His glory and splendor. 8)The obvious difference is that I believe in Christ the non-Christian does not. 9)To be a disciple means to follow the example of Christ or the Christian disciplines of love, mercy and caring about all of God's creation. 10)A disciple in training - I try but I still make mistakes - only with God's help can I practice this discipline. 11)I am a sinner - each time I sin I separate myself from God. Sin sets an example that can lead others away from Christ. 12)There are things that I choose not to do but because I am free in Christ there is nothing that is forbidden - the choice is mine and I choose JESUS. Thanks for the opportunity to testify |

23 | Whose will Jesus or me? | Rom 12:1 | Chearie | 40078 | ||
As I try to depend completely on Jesus Christ to direct my life I get confused between waiting on the Lord and being afraid to act because it might be my will and not His. How can I know when taking action is His will, not my intervention? | ||||||
24 | Paul's view of women and marriage | 1 Cor 7:1 | Chearie | 40311 | ||
First - I believe it is important to recognize that Jesus thought enough of marriage that He chose a marriage feast to perform His first miracle, and Jesus did nothing by accident. Second -Paul is writing in response to questions that had been sent to him regarding the problem sexual immorality in Corinth at that time. Third - We all have diferent weaknesses and areas that are prone to Satan's attack. Paul was only expressing his concern for what they were dealing with. Paul had his own thorns to deal with. Lastly-Paul's letter to the Corinthians goes on ( chapter 7 verse 26) to address what he saw as turbluent days ahead for married Christians because in times of persecution, considereation for family can make it difficult to live out Christian convictions to the fullest extent. A single Christian would not be deterred by the possiblity of repercussions affecting their family. |

25 | why do they say we are in the end times? | 2 Thess 2:3 | Chearie | 41463 | ||
Indeed many people today see the events in the book of revelations as current events and it is possible to see how some people think that all the pieces of that puzzle are fitting together now but be careful the Word says that no man shall no know (Matt. 24:36) and that He comes like a thief in the night (1Thess. 5:2) I do not look forward to the end times - Revelation does not paint a pretty picture but I thrill at the coming return of Jesus in all His glory | ||||||
26 | I'm not worried about the end, are you? | Rev 7:4 | Chearie | 44588 | ||
Worry belies the faith we have in Jesus Christ. If our relationship is with Him and we accept our salvation through His death on the cross then indeed our names are written in the Lamb's Book of Life Rev. 21:27 | ||||||
